Context of Mark 14:61

59But their testimony did not agree even on this point. 60So the chief priest stood up in the center and asked Jesus, “Don’t you have any answer to what these men testify against you?” But he was silent. The chief priest asked him again, “Are you the Messiah, the Son of the Blessed One?” 62Jesus answered, “Yes, I am, and you will see the Son of Man in the honored position—the one next to God the Father on the heavenly throne.
